It is never too early to educate your kids and grandchildren in firearms safety. Back in 1860 Henry Repeating Arms Company introduced the first lever-action repeating rifle. Debbie and I got our grandkids started in gun safety by buying for each a Henry Repeating Arms Youth Rifle, 22lr, 16.125” Barrel (blue finish, walnut stock) model with adjustable sights. This lever-action rifle is downsized for younger gun enthusiasts and is the perfect place to begin gun safety for your younger family members.

Your family can benefit from understanding the history of the Swiss Militia and how the Swiss militia system has helped keep Switzerland neutral, safe, prosperous, and free for hundreds of years (Read Part I and Part II of my series on how Switzerland’s militia system faced down Hitler and the Nazis).
